Oh so very French!
😊😊
That really is a very spindly tree! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
It is!
Ooh, haven’t heard of this, but it can’t have been too far from us.
As I recall, not far from Condom….
Which is lower down than P&A non?
A tad
Well, I got that wrong, I think…I would say south Central France
Actually, between Poitiers and Angoulème…so way higher up than you were
Ah! I Googled it but couldn’t find it.
This seems to be it: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbaye_Notre-Dame_de_la_Réau
Ah! Merci!
De rien !
Beautifully captured! I love how the vines frame the window.
Ah, vines! Of course, that’s what they are….
Everything in that picture works so well together.
Thank you, Janet, I love it
As you say splendidly spindly – just wonderful. Not much shade though for the bench!
It is…Janet pointed out that it’s a vine! Oh dear, not a tree…..
Lovely stonework, Sue!
That was what originally appealed….wonderful textures
I adore this photo. Love the shadows 😀
